Local conditions
Planning for Kolkata's climate
Fig. 01Climate and soil
Kolkata is hot and humid with a long, heavy monsoon. Drainage is the first thing to get right in any garden, and plants need protection from fungal disease in the rains.
Fig. 02When to plant and how to care
Plant trees at the start of the monsoon. Winter from November to February is the season for flowers and vegetables, which is when Kolkata's gardens look best.

What survives an air-conditioned floor in Sector V
Sector V, Eastern India's largest IT hub, packs close to 1,500 companies into about 14.6 million square feet of office space, almost all of it centrally air-conditioned. Renting plants for these floors means bridging the gap between a cooled, dry room and Kolkata's outdoor humidity, which averages 68-69% for most of the year.
That gap between chilled indoor air and humid outdoor air is what brings on fungus gnats and sooty mould on office plants faster here than in a drier city. For desks, cabins and reception counters we lean on orchids, palms and bamboos, plant families the Indian Botanic Garden at Shibpur has grown at scale in this exact climate since 1787 and still holds among its strongest living collections.
These species tolerate the swing between a chilled office and Kolkata's humid outside air better than soft-leaved tropicals, which is why the same short list turns up on most of the floors we service across Sector V, New Town and Rajarhat.
A monthly visit built around that humidity
Because the humidity problem is constant rather than seasonal, the monthly visit checks the drainage hole in every pot, wipes leaf surfaces clean of dust and mould, and swaps any plant that is declining before it is visible from the corridor.
A facility manager gets one plant list for records and one invoice covering every floor, whatever the mix of plants placed on each.
Pests that show up on rented desk plants
Mealybugs and scale insects turn up on palms and softer-leaved plants wherever they sit between a fan and an open window, feeding on the sap and leaving a sticky residue that then grows sooty mould on top of it.
The monthly visit checks the underside of leaves and the stem joints where these pests hide, treating an infestation early rather than waiting for a full pot to be swapped out.
What we ask a facility team to watch for between visits
A pot that suddenly needs watering twice as often as its neighbours is usually the first sign of root rot setting in under the surface, well before the leaves themselves show any change, and flagging that between our scheduled visits lets us swap the plant before it declines further.
We ask reception and admin staff to note anything unusual rather than trying to diagnose it themselves, since the fix at that stage is almost always a plant swap rather than a treatment they could apply.

Yes. We supply and maintain office plants across Sector V, New Town, Rajarhat and the rest of Kolkata and Howrah.
Which plants suit Kolkata's air-conditioned offices best?
Orchids, palms and bamboos hold up well against the swing between chilled indoor air and this city's humid outside air, and they are the families we place most often on rented desks and in cabins.
